he is going to get the santorum supporters. sending out an e-mail saying let me get some money and hoping to get a lot of supporters from santorum. when you look at the recent nationwide poll half would go to mitt romney? why, john avlon, is newt gingrich staying in this thing? >> well, he is sort of jumping up and down saying i'm still here. i think newt gingrich is playing a bit of poker. he is reading history books and hoping maybe he will get lucky. maybe there's an opportunity for him to ride this thing to tampa and maybe things will break his way late in the game. i think those folks who have been hard core conservative to mitt romney, i think you will see newt gingrich's numbers get a slight bump in the state contests going forward because he is the last man standing along with ron paul. i think effectively the nomination is done today with rick santorum dropping out. and that, mitt romney is going to have time to coalesce the support and refocus the message to the general election. he's got a lot of ground to gain. in t

santorum is branding himself the high-risk choice. yeah, if you want to win the election go ahead with mitt romney. but if you want to have fun, choose me. i think republican primary voters are saying i'm going with the low-risk choice. >> jamal, do you think -- go ahead. >> i think the one thing the republicans have to be careful of is not sounding like negative nellies. i don't think the american public want to hear politicians bring them down. they want to hear them talk about what they can do better and how to make it go faster. not necessarily it's not as good as it may look. i think people will end up getting punished for rooting against america rather than being supportive. >> there's something to that. you've got to give him credit. that's political very difficult. >> the thing that romney says in every speech is the president was dealt a hard hand. it's both true but also shows a sense of fairness. >> it helps with independents because you're not saying, look, i'm sticking to my talking points, i'm acknowledging a problem and

rick santorum ain't no libertarian. but that appeal can help him in south carolina for better or worse. >> what do you think about how that might play or will play tonight to south carolina? >> well, you know, in south carolina, people are more attune to the social issues. in new hampshire, it's more the economic issues. but i think what you saw there is rick santorum welcome to the big leagues, welcome to the top tier. what happens when you're in the top tier, as you go around the state, you're going to have people who want to challenge you because they know that he's very conservative on social issues. so you clearly had somebody in that audience who is opposed to his position on gay marriage. he's against gay marriage. and, you know, sort of pushing him on it. and this is the test for someone as a candidatement you know, he kind of seemed to let that get under his skin. and he's going to have to develop a way to not let that get under his skin as he continues campaigning in new hampshire. it's a whole different state

that is rick santorum's strongest point. it is whether he can make the place about the closed mill towns and hey we have a plan for manufacturing. that could help you and mitt romney has it plan that field as well. >> how do you think when we get the next poll which i think we will within the next 24 hours, last time we had it at the peak of the gingrich surge. >> right. >> what is your view of how at least in order it stacks out in south florida. >> i don't know. i think you will see rick santorum and newt gingrich do well in south carolina. i think it depends on what happens to mitt romney in new hampshire. he is in the stratosphere in new hampshire. even if he wins, which i think is likely, it comes down from the stratosphere it a level that is more like what he has been getting, say 25 to 30% and still wins. then he will be perceived as very vulnerable. but if he has a lot of momentum, all this added, democrats fall in love with their candidates. republicans fall in line. right? at a certain point, the republicans may de
